LEA STEIN JEWELLERY - COPIES AND FAKES

I have loved Lea Stein jewellery for many many years. She and her husband started in the late 1960s making buttons etc. Her jewellery has - over the years, attracted so many followers. The Fox has become iconic! However unfortunately there are so many cheap copies and fakes coming - presumably from the Far East. I do not think it is acceptable to sell these cheap imitations - especially as they are copyrighted. Swamping the market with cheap copies often puts companies out of business. Please do not buy them - even if the price is tempting - it really is not fair! I am currently doing battle with Amazon - as they have a range of Lea Stein copies at the moment. Easy to find in Brooches. If you love Lea Stein please add a review - Amazon do not like a 'hate' review - and please explain why! The people buying them might love them - but they seem quite unaware that they are copies of someone else's lifetime's
